Mitchell

I was awoken up the next morning by the sound of alarm. Huh? I never set any alarms in the mornings. I hate their noise. When i tried moving i found i couldnt move. Something held me down.

Upon investigation i realized that alex was sleeping beside me. The two of us were entangled together and he looked peaceful. Almost childlike. I looked at alex's sleeping face noticing the features for the first time.

His black hair which were usually gelled to perfection were messed up. His cheeks were kind of strong giving him a manly yet boyish look at the same time. His right arm was drapped across my waist effectively blocking my way of escape. I tried moving without waking alex up but that was inpossible.

His light gtoan told me that he was waking up. I began to panic as i didnt want him to find us in this situation. Too late. I felt his arm move from my waste and i looked up into his black eyes. Alex looked surprised for a moment as he saw me entangled with him.

He also tried to move away but that only made the situation worse. I was now on top of alex with both my legs entangled with his. I blushed deeply like a fire dighter as i looked at him. I didnt want him to be angry with me so early in the morning.

"Get off," he said in a hard yet sleepy tone.

His voice set something inside me of which i wasnt so sure.

"I am trying," i said meekly.

I almost gasped out loud in surprise ad he pushed me away likr i was a rag doll. His mere actions led me to feel slightly hurt inside but i just pushed the feeling away.

"Get ready," he said briskly.
"Huh?" I asked blinking my eyes.
"I said get ready. You are going with me. Boss said to bring you with me. Wants to meet you at 9am," Alex said.
"Me? Why?" I stuttered, eyes wide.
"Shut up and get ready. I dont want to be late vecause of you," he spat harshly before walking out of my room.

Sigh. I hated making people angry at me. Climbing out of bed i went intk the bathroom and stood in front of the sink. My eyes opened wide as i stared at my disheaveled look in the mirror. Oh my god! No wonder Alex was pissed off! I looked like a dead zombie! No wait. A scarecrow. An ugly scarecrpw.

Quickly geting ready i walked out of the batlhroom dressed in a proffessional attire. Rummaging in my things i pulled out my CV. Well i wasnt dumb enough not to realuze that alex's boss wanted me for a job. Besides i had to be prepared if he ask me for a CV.

Going downstairs i was met by Alex who looked habdsome in his black jeans and white collared shirt and black coat. His messed up black hair were pulled back neatly by a brush.

"Just wait 5 minutes abd i will make a quick breakfast," i said.
"I dont have time Mitchell. We can eat at the office," Alex said.

Without further adieu he turned on his herls and walked out of the apartment. I sighed and followed bejind him wondering if i could make him acknowledge me as a friend or not.

Alex

I drummed my fingers on the steering wheel as i drove to my company. Well more likely the company i work in.

"If boss ask you a question just give short answers. I dont want your tongue rattling away like a piece of unwanted bubble gum," i scoffed.

I knew it wasnt the best examplr possible but i couldnt think of anything else to say.

"Excuse me! I do nit talk like i am chewing a piece of bubble gum in my mouth!" Mitchell retorted.

I had to admit she wasnt like other girls who talked continously and made my head ache. But i didnt like her. She ruined my life. Pulling into the company's parking lot i shut the car and opened the door.

"Come oj and dont talk much," i stated, staring at her briefly.

So much trying to get her to hate me i was kind of baffled as to why she was still with me. Why was she still trying to be in a relationship that made no sense? I mean it wasnt exactly like we were in any sort of relationship in the first place.

The fact that she hadnt up and left me while slamming the door behind her in the process. Bevause i deserved that kind of attitude. I mean i fidnt deserve to be loved. I deserved to be left alone and rot in hell. I wasnt capable of love. Not after just what had happened.

Entering the company i was greeted by the sight of the workers pracrically gawking at me. I scoffed inwardly and rolled my eyes. They didnt even tried to hide the fact that they were staring at me. And the fact that i btought someone with me. More specifically a girl.

Entering thr elevator i tried to focus ob something other than mitchell.

"Dont say stiff to get me in trouble ok?" I asked stiffly.

I loved my job as a painter. It was one of the things i enjoyed the most. It have me a free mind. Helped me relax.

"Why would i do sometjing to get tou into trouble?" Mitvhell asked.
"To get even with mr?" I asked.
"If i wanted to get even i would have already done so," she said.

She did hadd a point but i didnt say anythinf about that. Stepping onto the sixth floor of thr building i walked briskly towards boss's office and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Oh well here goes nothing.

Allrighty! So do you think there would be inprovement in their relationship? Or will there be some twists and turns? Feedback will be appreciated! :)
